Yeah I bought one of these like 6 years ago and it still rocks, everyday use, all sorts of edc goes onto it, even secured a fishing net once with it to a large rock LOL.
Get the 1.75-inch version, it's a little stronger. Also, get the 1.75-inch Operater belt to carry guns and other heavy-duty items. :) I use both belts for my 5.11's Stryke and Apex pants. They go very well with each other!
The belt actually works better if u flip it over and feed the excess into the side with the finger catch first. When u pull it in that side first, it doesn't slip like it does when u run it the way the manufacturer intended. It will stay tight infinitely when fed backwards.
will have to try? I have a similar belt and being that I am a bigger guy, my belt area is wider then hips. hard to tighten the belt. everytime, as I go to pull the belt all the way thru it loosens just a tad bit. man I miss my army belt. that at least had teeth so when you pulled it thru the first part it would catch and keep it tight.
I own the 1.75 version of this belt. It is ok for light weight weapons etc. I have had mine for a year or so and it does break down after time. I seems I have to keep sinching it tighter -do not get me wrong. I like it-good product but if you think you are going to carry a gun such as a Beretta Px storm and not have sagging problems think again.
It looks like 1.75 in wide belt would have been better fit for your jeans, so it would support a tactical load better. You have enough room for a 1.75 in wide belt in your belt loops as far as I can see from your video.
Thanks! I've seen what I'm looking for in this video. I am about to buy this belt online because I am looking for a durable replacement for my leather belt. Just for casual use.
I also have this exact belt and it is very cool, durable, convenient and cool in every way

Nome of my holsters are 1.75" and i don't carry any duty holsters, just edc stuff.
Another fine review! Great intro! For a similar - but possibly thinner- belt, I got a brass key-hook that nicely holds TJ’s belt ‘tail’.

Once I get mine on, I can't sinch it tighter. Is there a trick to it?
hi, what size did you take? do you think it's a good idea to take one a bit longer to put the end of the belt on the first loop of the pant?
This one was a little too small for me when I wore it in the video. I am a 36 now, and it fits fine.
Ok thank you, i'm 36 too, i have order the xl to arrive to the first loop of my pants.
Will this belt hold the weight of a medium framed 9mm?
Frank Scalice I think you would be better off with the trainer or operator belt.
Use the Operator belt. It's designed to carry guns and other stuff police officers carry.
The buckle is an unadjustable piece of garbage.Whoever designed this doesn’t wear a belt.
Amazon has there sizes in small medium and large. Which would be best for a 32" waist? Thx!
I'd contact 5.11 and ask them.
Always go at least 2 sizes bigger than your waist.
Has this belt ever broke since you had it?
It hasn't but I haven't used it a ton honestly.
What belt are you using now? i am just trying to find a decent carry belt. broke 4 with Walmart.
Jon Holaway I think this belt will do fine for you. A more rugged on for about $25 is the Condor Riggers Belt - nicely made and very solid.
I cannot get the belt tight enough total junk
